    @BrutalBirdie Any idea if Kutt's QR code uses Google Chart API or is it created locally?

      @BrutalBirdie Oh okay 🙂 I'm using Yourls and was going to switch to Kutt if it generated the QR code. I found a QR code plugin for Yourls but it uses Google Chart API. I prefer to avoid using Google services if possible so I'm still on the lookout for a more seamless integration/workflow.

        @humptydumpty looking at the Github repo, Kutt does generate QR code, from a react library.

        I've never used it though, so I can't confirm it works. ; )

            What is Kutt's idle RAM usage? Yourls is showing as 11mb in my graphs.

                  Wow. Kutt is much nicer than Yourls. The CR docs mention that you can add your email to the admin, contact, and report fields in the .env file. However, that email is displayed on the "report" page for all to see (if you fill in the report and contact fields) so keep that in mind.

                  Also, you can only report a shortened URL that is using the main domain and none of the alias-based URLs (if that applies to you) so the whole feature is useless if you have multi-domains and open registration.

                    @privsec
                    No.

                    I set up my page with Mautic (not Maurice :D) or what ever (LAMP/Wordpress/Drupal yada yada) which has the content.
                    Then I create a kutt short url for the content I want to have as a QR-Code.

                    The kutt short url is the QR-Code, this way I can always update the kutt target and the QR-Code stays the same.

                    Example:
                    https://short.cloudron.dev/forum guess what it links now to the forum.
                    and the QR-Code for that URL is:

                    b7d23bf1-c800-4b7b-b178-b0ddcea0e401-grafik.png

                    Now I can update the target URL of https://short.cloudron.dev/forum to what ever I want and the QR-Code stays the same.

                    Now I will set the target to my forum profile.
                    QR-Code stays the same, since its the same url.

                    Have fun scanning 😏

                      https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/kutt/

                      Watch out for the open registration for kutt, after creating your users disable the registration, otherwise spammers can use your kutt.
